Depends on the olds only design, otherwise I would take the M series

/\/\/\I agree, but if I was to choose between Z3 and M series I would choose the M series fender but I wouldn't want the chrome just a solid color to match the fender.

There played out on Honda's, not on Aleros. I only know one Alero with Z3 Fenders and they are reversed position, that look alot different.

2 then I was only was aware of 1. Still you cant compare that to how many honda's or other imports with them.

ummm...ok here is a normal one...these fenders were made by robbie then went on a black alero along with a custom ss hood scoop......couldn't find those pictures..dang....that car was sick....pimpalero03 probably has some pictures of it still...i think he loves the ss hood scoop more than i do....

i think i know which black one you're talking about, i have pictures of it from almost 2 years ago somewhere, if i find them, i'll post them.
hmmm, one picture was sweet, and would make a great calendar photo, but i dont know if he/she is/was a member. it was a good shot of the car, it's black with the z3's and american racing (Aero?) wheels and an american flag paint/graffiti on the wall in the background... anyone have that pic?

11-23-2004, 04:32 PM
yeh that's the car......i think it had some barb style wheels...one of the first alero's i really liked.....that ss hood flowed so smoothly....hmmm..

Ditto ^ B) The M series is sweet as hell, but I'd wanna see the Olds only fender on a car before I'd make the final decision.

yea, when i first found my alero, that car and robbies car are the only cool aleros i could find online, and they made me decided to go ahead and get it.... and back then there were NO alero's in my town, now there's an alero for every civic i see.. it's sad

Anyone who voted for the m-series fenders like mine. Please PM me. This project could move along as quickly as the hoods. Some time around tax time as a projection. Please get a hold of me and let me know how interested you really are. :D

all this time i thought those were just stickers of intakes on your car crazy!!! what about the intakes actually being functional, or going along the curve of the fender, or being at the front of the fender if theres room, just some thoughts for the alero only fenders.

He was a member and was from Louisiana, but he ended up selling his car. Yeah I loved that car I ended up buying a wing from him that he was going to put on his car before he sold it. I can't remember what kind of car he bought though.

What other kind of design would be used for the fender? Anything like our bodykit brands fenders or maybe somthing to accent a new hood?

If you look under your hood. There is no pass through from behind the fender to the engine compartment. Sorry.

i think hood vents would look beter, kind of like the PRE 97 GTP's, lumina z34's, only molded in...someone should photoshop it up!
AlbinoMonkeyRat
12-02-2004, 06:07 PM
true it would look better, but we'd have to devise a design that wouldn't allow rain to get in and ruin the stuff right there (ie: the fuse box, and alternator on V6's)

you won't have to worry about that......sc/alero has gtp scoops on his hood......no worries about that poop..unless for some retarded reason you don't have the cover on your fuse box.....and an alternator can take on water ie. splasing just can't be freakin submerged, poop like that....

good point. but I just thought of something, vents on the hood might look better on a cowl induction hood...particularly, on the sides of the raised cowl. ;)

I voted for M-series, whats the custom alero one look like?
Here's some shots of the Z3's like 'em but agree they've been played out- still cool though!

Note: these are not my cars-
I'm interested, but all depends on the deal.. that's always something I feel can be added later as a finishing touch!

that last one is my car.....seen those pics before though.......damn i want that hood...

this poll has been helpful in determining what direction to go, while producing parts for the alero comunity. I do have other things in the works also and one other that is a priority. No new information at this time. Need to move some hoods.

I got an idea for a design (which is totally ripped off another european car)
The Aston martin DB7 vents. They are similar to the M-series, but without the louvers.

I dont mean to disrespect you Crazytaxi37, your fenders are cool but I dont think they match the Alero at all I think the Reverse or regular Z3 fenders look better.

the aston martin vents remind me of an oldschool refigerator door handle.....

I didn't say it was a good idea. just an idea. Some people have different tastes. ;)

after seeing that pic for the first time in a long time of the camaro scoop on our car makes be glad that i have the cowl hood rather than that. does flow well with the body lines, imo
